I am writing an article on GBPVR for TGdaily just wondering if I could have permission to use some of the pictures from the wiki. I'm not real sure who to ask specifically but reven and sub I though your permission would be important
All the movies I'm marking to record, end up being only 1 hour and 27 minutes long so the end of the movie is chopped off. I have it set to reencode to divx, there is plenty of drive space left(30 gigs) and it's done it on 4 movies now. I'm running the latest version of gbpvr, using two hauppauge 150 cards.
I've had the pvr running for around 4 months without an issue, though I hadn't really gotten around to recording a movie before as we mostly would just record 30 minute or 1 hour shows. I thought possibly it could be something with the windows file size limit, though I always thought that was larger like in the 8 gig range. Any Ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks.
I was thinking about this (I know I shouldn't do that), would it be possible to add another TV station to GBPVR in the xml (or database) where ever it's stored, and have it set to a FM radio frequency rather than a TV frequency? Then I could setup a manual recording for say 6am to 7am on that channel and get an audio only mpg.
Not thinking, the other day I changed my system date to two weeks in advance. :eek:
So, all my recordings got marked failed... It took me about 30-40 mins to delete them all one by one, only to find out it still wouldnt mark them pending, even after an EPG update.
I had to remove them from the access database. Is there somthing easier I could have done? If it happens again I'll just go into access and fix them now that I've poked around in there.
I certainly won't be doing this again anytime soon but it seems a Reset Failed Recordings option would be a quicky, it just have to reset the proper fields in the database.
After looking around here in different posts and not finding what I was looking for...
I had a choppy sound problem where my integrated sound card (and also trying a PCI card) and one of my two PVR150s were sharing the same IRQs and causing sound problems.
In WIN-XP, the Motherboard (MOBO) ACPI suppose to manage the IRQs and this is why you might see two devices share the same IRQ but my Asus MOBO did not do that very well.
It turns out to be an incorrect IRQ assignment of the ACPI motherboard.
I did not reinstall my OS though. I tried different setting in the BIOS for manually assigned IRQs. And I did not want to move the PCI cards around.
After a day or so my sound seems stable for the moment. It used to be that when I have Winamp running and I open GBPVR and watch live TV, as soon as the live TV starts, I can hear Winamp chokes. It doesn't happen anymore.
Just remember, playing with IRQs is a risky business you might not be able to boot. So take notes of your BIOS setting before you change anything.
